I believe this is some of the most important info on the FISA bill H.R. 6304

Glen Greenwald from Salon on Obama’s support for FISA

One of the most important things Glen Greenwald has to say (former Constitutional Layer) is

It is absolutely false that the only unconstitutional and destructive provision of this “compromise” bill is the telecom amnesty part. It’s true that most people working to defeat the Cheney/Rockefeller bill viewed opposition to telecom amnesty as the most politically potent way to defeat the bill, but the bill’s expansion of warrantless eavesdropping powers vested in the President, and its evisceration of safeguards against abuses of those powers, is at least as long-lasting and destructive as the telecom amnesty provisions. The bill legalizes many of the warrantless eavesdropping activities George Bush secretly and illegally ordered in 2001. Those warrantless eavesdropping powers violate core Fourth Amendment protections. And Barack Obama now supports all of it, and will vote it into law. Those are just facts.

Barack Obama is starting to exhibit a pattern of soft peddling and supporting really bad bills.

Another example is Barack Obama’s Senate vote for the Reauthorization of the Patriot Act.
Senate votes on the Reauth of the Patriot Act
Also Congress votes on the Reauth of the Patriot Act

Kucinich on why this FISA HR 6304 is so bad

Russ Feingold on why FISA HR 6304 is so bad

It looks like I will have to vote for Ralph Nader or Bob Barr for hope of change.

Ralph Nader

Bob Barr

Chuck Baldwin

Some people may want to look into Check Baldwin. Personally voting for a former member of the Moral Majority does not sound like a good idea. Although I believe morality is very important, I don’t want to elect someone who is going to try to legislate it.
